Gabriel has crafted a fine site and shares some of my pain with a state-run liquor system. He also manages to post about 4000 times more than me, and it’s always interesting!

Days That End In “Y”
An all-around drinking blog that posts quality news on the world of spirits, beer, wine, gadgets… the list goes on, as do the posts, which are too numerous to count. “Updated frequently” would be an understatement.

Upcoming TDN – Rum

The rum-infused week sails on toward Thursday Drink Night and our ship’s hold is filled to the breaking point, leaving us drowning in delicious bilge water. So turn your cocktail shaker into a bucket and join us this week to create original rum cocktails.

The prize for the best original cocktail, as voted on at the Mixoloseum Blog, will be a bottle of the rumored-to-be-discontinued Lemon Hart 151 rum, courtesy of Mud Puddle Books.

Rye Whiskey Wrap-Up

How we managed to host 6 months of TDNs and not feature rye whiskey baffles me, but it was totally as hot as everyone expected. Rye found its way into nearly every brand of cocktail, and it even featured a conjugal visit between sriracha and cocoa powder.

Winning Cocktail

Simple, elegant, and coquettishly tasty, the New Carré won out this week, massacring the competition. Such defeat surprised me, as many of the other contenders were stout and quaffable in their own right. Jake Parrott has gotten himself a bottle of Rittenhouse Bonded for his efforts.

New Carré

1.5oz Rittenhouse 80

1oz Dolin blanc

1/4oz green Chartreuse

Stir while thinking of New Orleans, strain into cocktail glass, and garnish with orange twist.
